A "guest room"...I simply would NEVER leave!......LOVE the lavendar! A few days ago, I was again looking through some pictures I had saved....& what did I come across?.... but all the photos of Oprah's "guest house" here in California. A wonderful article had been written up in her magazine "Oprah At Home", a year or two back,....and I just couldn't throw it out! I am delighted I still had them...such fabulous decorating ideas! The colors, fabrics, wallpapers & antique pieces just come together to create a "guest" house that most of us wouldn't mind living in "year-round"! I hope you enjoy these glimpses into Oprah's incredible "California Guest House"!....... The "family room",.... warm & inviting.Another view of the "family room"...I love the combination of powder blue & brown......The antique "penny" above the door is carved from wood & is a piece Oprah found when "flea-marketing"!!!....... Another "pretty, purple bedroom"...... A view of the kitchen......

Kitchen continued...... A very "rosy" living area....I LOVE this room! Would be so so great in the winter, but also fresh & lovely for the summer months as well!.... A corner of the "dining room".....I certainly could use that incredible blue secretary here in my house! Oprah's collection of "desert paintings"........on one of the dining room walls..... And a tiny "upholstered jewel-box" of an office!......How many bolts did this little room take?....Lots & lots!!!!!!,... but so worth it!!!
